Parallel SCSI configuration
This menu allows for setting up SCSI attributes.
Figure 45 Parallel SCSI configuration menu
Press the Enter key to toggle the current menu to the next SCSI bus.
• Select 1 to edit the SCSI Initiator menu settings, described later in the chapter.
• Select 2 to enable/disable SCSI Discovery.
• Select 3 to enable/disable SCSI bus Reset on Boot. When enabled, the interface card automatically
resets SCSI buses after initial library power-up and after reboots.
• Select 4 to set the discovery delay time for SCSI devices. The default is 30 seconds. This is the time the
interface card waits after a power-up or reboot before starting to discover SCSI devices. This value
should be set to no less than 250ms, according to the SCSI standard for Reset-to-Selection Time. This
value may need to be increased to ensure that all SCSI devices complete their individual power-ups.
With Discovery enabled, the Discovery Delay lengthens the time taken by the interface card to reboot.
• Select 5 to toggle the SCSI termination mode between Enabled and Disabled. This option is
automatically set to Enabled for Internal termination. The Internal setting allows the interface card to
internally terminate a SCSI connection. Setting this option to Disabled allows the SCSI bus, not the
interface card, to handle SCSI terminations.
• Select 6 to access menu settings for the maximum SCSI bus connection speed, described later in this
chapter. Note that when this option is selected, the user is prompted to select a Target ID on the
currently selected bus. Currently, maximum speed settings are shown.
